there is a coke one, and an easy one (you know, easy like in jet....) the easy one is about 25p a pop i think...

I saw an advert in the post office for unlimted napstar downloads for a £10 for one month dont know anything about it though. Alternatively rip all the cd`s you can get your hands on as long as they are yours of course not a friends.

Itunes and the like are the emperors new web sites.
Buying the CD is better in so many ways. Its cheaper, you have the artwork, you can encode the MP3s at any bitrate you choose, you recieve a physical product, you have no restrictions placed on it.......
TBH, the music companies have been incredibly lucky Ipods became cool, because on paper its a rediculous business model. They charge more per track than a CD (yet is far worse sound quality), you get no physical product and its often hamstrung with restrictions. It actually staggers me that the market has taken off like it has.
Go to amazon, sample the tunes over real player and go out and get the CD. Why the hell anyone would want to do otherwise baffles me (yes I know its more convinient, but seriously. You like and buy 6 or 7 tunes off an album over MP3. With more and more places like cd-wow knocking CDs out for pennies, its such a false economy).

I find buying songs off iTunes very good when i only want one track. It`s much better to pay 79p for the only track I want rather than paying £7 for the CD when i only want one song. Plus, when I only listen on my iPod, the quality doesn`t really bother me, as I can`t tell the difference. __________________________________________
